| TEXT | A name widely known as a distinguished artist of New York is that of Marc Gambler. Imbued with indomitable energy, and the highest order of talent, Mr. Gambier has long been recognized as the leader in his profession, and as an artist, photographer and portrait painter of wide celebrity. He has now been established in business for five years, formerly occupying all the upper floors of the large building No. 10 West 14th Street (only a few doors from Fifth Avenue) with his studio, reception and operating rooms. On May 1, 1894, he removed to his present central and commodious premises in Broadway, which are elegantly fitted up, and contain on exhibition many striking masterpieces of Mr. Gambier's art. Here he gives close personal attention to the taking of strictly high class portraits. He is renowned for his great skill, unerring judgment, and splendid executive abilities, and makes a specialty of private parties. With photographs of the highest order as one specialty, Mr. Gambier also makes a prominent feature of his pastel portraits, considered to be the finest in the United States. He also executes pictures in crayon and oils, and many of his magnificent works are to be seen in the homes of our best people. Mr. Gambier was the artist, who made the original drawing of the raft scene in the famous spectacular play .entitled, "The World," and which has received the hearty encomiums of the press and public alike, as being & most thrilling and life-like realization and delineation of the horrors of shipwreck. Mr. Gambier's business has assumed proportions of the greatest magnitude, and he employs a large and competent staff of assistants in his studio and very extensive work rooms. He also exclusively uses the new, instantaneous process in photography, and as he personally attends to all sittings, the public are fully justified in bestowing upon him such a large and constantly widening measure of patronage. A novelty of his establishment are the popular " stamp photos," being finely taken and fully developed pictures, just the size of postage stamps, and which are attached to a letter or postal card by the writer, thus giving his portrait and signature together to correspondents. Mr. Gambier is a native of France, and thoroughly educated to his profession. |
